It seems that over the past few years it is getting harder to find work overseas for Australian pilots.
To the many companies I have applied for work, the ones who took the time out to get back to me had somehow or another said something along the lines of these couple of letters:
Dear Mr.$$$$$$:
We are in receipt of your resume regarding employment with Air Jamaica.
Unfortunately, we are only employing Jamaican citizens or CONTRACT CAPTAINS
who are qualified on type that we fly - A320 and A321. However, there is a
'hiring freeze' now in force.
We thank you for your interest in Air Jamaica.
Yours sincerely,
Captain Ludlow Johnson
Manager, Crew Administration
Dear Mr. $$$$$,
We acknowledge receipt of your e-mail, in which you expressed your desires of being employed by our Company as a Pilot.
We regret to inform you that for the next 02 to 03 years we will not be in a position to offer any Pilot Positions due to a localisation programme of all our posts with Seychellois Nationals.
May we take this opportunity to thank you for your interest shown in our Company and wish you all the best in your future undertakings.
Thanking you.
Yours sincerely
R YOUNG (Capt.)
CHIEF PILOT
